Dr. Chris Michaels has written a passionate and compelling book about such questions as why am I here and what am I supposed to be doing? In bold, confident and fearless language, Dr. Chris takes on the big ideas: God, your mind, and the very purpose of existence.

In Chris Michaels’s dynamic book, The Power of You, he reminds us how our desire to express—to embrace—our dreams, never goes away. No matter where we are on the path of self-examination, that beckoning voice ceaselessly invites us to go deeper in cultivating a relationship with our inner power. Within these pages lies nurturing instruction on how to stop living from shame and mediocrity, and start living from your soul’s inherent greatness.

David Ault, author of Where Regret Cannot Find Me

I will be eternally grateful to Chris for reintroducing me to my own light, and elevating that powerful conversation that took place between friends a long time ago. Chris once told me that the reason he entered ministry is for those moments when sees the light ‘come on’ for people. He will always be my friend, my brother, and my minister.

Joel Brown, Artistic Director – Souletry

Chris Michaels is one of the most exciting voices in the world of spirituality today. He received standing ovations every time he spoke at Sacred Center New York to our 800+ crowd, and we always received requests to bring him back.

His new book, The Power of You, is refreshing, inspiring, and motivational – it’s very much in the vein of The Power of Decision, The Power of Positive Thinking and other classic spiritual self-help books.

I believe Chris Michaels is headed for a national stage – his unique wisdom and speaking skills demand it, and this new book will help him reach a whole new audience. Simply put – Chris Michaels is the real deal.
